Origin
This rug was hand-knotted in the small town of Wiss in the so-called Sarough region. Wiss lies on the road from Arak to Isfahan in western Iran. Almost every private household in Wiss has a knotting loom. Sturdy rugs with traditional patterns are knotted here. Typical of rugs from Wiss is the dominant hexagon as the medallion in the central field, framed above and below by a hooked lozenge.
The pile of Wiss rugs is traditionally dyed with madder-red plant dyes – obtained from the root of the madder plant (Rubia tinctorium).
Material
The pile of this Wiss was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by shearing sheep gently. It is a renewable, natural raw material with a whole range of impressive qualities: thanks to the natural lanolin in the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is naturally proofed against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, helps regulate the indoor climate and dampens sound.
A note on the photos
Child labour? No thanks.
Child labour? No thanks. Children belong in school, not at a knotting frame or a loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour.
We attach particular importance to humane working conditions and tolerate no child labour at any of our producers. Thank you for helping us to ensure fair conditions.
That is why we support the initiative Care & Fair against child labour in the rug trade.
